Abstract
A porous silicon composite including: a porous silicon composite cluster comprising a porous silicon composite secondary particle and a second carbon flake on at least one surface of the porous silicon composite secondary particle; and a carbonaceous layer on the porous silicon composite cluster, the carbonaceous layer comprising amorphous carbon, wherein the porous silicon composite secondary particle comprises an aggregate of two or more silicon primary particles, the two or more silicon primary particles comprise silicon, a silicon suboxide of the formula SiOx, wherein 0<x<2 on a surface of the silicon, and a first carbon flake on at least one surface of the silicon suboxide, the silicon suboxide is in a form of a film, a matrix, or a combination thereof, and the first carbon flake and the second carbon flake are each independently present in a form of a film, particles, a matrix, or a combination thereof. Also a method of preparing the porous silicon composite, a carbon composite, an electrode, and a device, each including the porous silicon composite, and a lithium battery including the electrode.
